This traditional Italian tomato and bread salad is given a Greek twist with feta cheese and kalamata olives. Olive oil croutons are hard to resist (recipe here).

Do you ever wonder why I don't post more recipes on Farmgirl Fare? Sometimes I do too. It's partly because I'm really picky about the recipes I share with you, partly a time factor thing, and partly because I'm often still making the same (already shared) favorites over and over again. Like this Greek Style Panzanella Salad.

I pretty much lived on this salad for several weeks last summer and am ready to do it again. It makes a great side dish for grilled meats and a perfect light supper or lunch. I've even eaten the leftovers for breakfast. You'll find the recipe here. Enjoy!

Hungry for more than salad?There are links to all my sweet and savory Less Fuss, More Flavor recipes in the Farmgirl Fare Recipe Index.

Hooray! This is one of our favorites too. Cukes coming, tomatoes just starting to come, olives and feta, sweet peppers, check. Cannot wait to chop, mix and scarf! Your recipes are truly the best. Thanks soooo much for sharing!

Nom nom nom nom. I love this kind of salad but I never thought of adding croutons. I just had to show my mom how to make Greek salad dressing since my dad likes my dressing better than my mom's :-O It's different than yours, I see. I focus on lemon juice instead vinegar.

Not sure if my last comment went though cause my internet pooped out. Here's what I meant to say:

I'm ::Drooling:: at the thought of your recipe! Never considered making homemade croutons on the stovetop using my cast iron skillet. What a great way to keep the house cool and avoid using the oven. It's necessary these days, especially with the weather being over 100 degrees every day here in Dallas. It rained here pretty heavily on Thursday & Friday last week, too, so we must have gotten hit by the same storm. :)

I just bookmarked your site. Love the recipes & pictures, even though the pics make me homesick for my sister and aunt's farms back in eastern kansas. It's so lonely without animals! Hope you're doing well after the rain. Can't wait to try the recipe.

December 2015 update: Hi! For some reason I can't figure out, Blogger hasn't been letting me leave comments on my own blog (!) for the last several months, so I've been unable to respond to your comments and questions. My apologies for any inconvenience! You're always welcome to email me: farmgirlfare AT gmail DOT com.

Hi! Thanks for visiting Farmgirl Fare and taking the time to write. While I'm not always able to reply to every comment, I receive and enjoy reading them all.

Your feedback is greatly appreciated, and I especially love hearing about your experiences with my recipes. Comments on older posts are always welcome!

Please note that I moderate comments, so if I'm away from the computer it may be a while before yours appears.

I try my best to answer all questions, though sometimes it takes me a few days. And sometimes, I'm sorry to say, they fall through the cracks, and for that I sincerely apologize.

I look forward to hearing from you and hope you enjoy your e-visits to our farm!
